Obituary
After a hard fought battle with cancer, on August 22, 2023, our world dimmed as we said our
final goodbyes to our dear father, Thomas Michael O’Sullivan, fondly known to many as
“Mike”, but most dearly to us as “Dad”. Born in Toronto on June 26, 1955, Dad’s final days
were filled with warmth, peace, and family.
A proud Canadian by birth, with roots in Shanbally and Ringaskiddy, Cork, our father’s
legacy will be lovingly carried forward by his children Ciara, Colm (Maria), and Dara, his
cherished siblings Stephen (Heather), Kevin (Molly), John, Eileen (Brian), Aïda (John), David
and sister-in-law Susan, He now finds tranquillity alongside his eldest brother Barry, and
devoted parents, Patrick Joseph O’Sullivan and Margaret Bridget (Breda) (nee BARRY)
O’Sullivan.
Our dad was a man of contrasts: stubborn, yet profoundly sweet. While he often chose to
speak with actions rather than words, his life choices reflected an unwavering desire to live
life on his own terms. And live it on his terms, he did—right up to his very last breath.
Though he was a man of brevity, Dad’s life was a testament to the deep love and
commitment he held for those dear to him. His playful spirit, and ability to bring laughter until
the very end and to every situation will forever be cherished and missed.
Professionally, Dad thrived as a passionate welder and crane operator, and a proud member
of the International Union of Operating Engineers. Not just a job, his work was a true calling,
and he would often quip that his dream was to never retire.
Our deepest gratitude extends to the Home and Community Care teams, especially our
dedicated nurse, Janice Mamaoag, and the compassionate Dr. Justine Baek, for their
unwavering support during our dad’s final days. We are also deeply appreciative of the
numerous doctors, nurses, personal support workers and all the staff at Sunnybrook Hospital
and the Odette Cancer centre.
To our dear uncles and aunts: Your strength, love, and support during these difficult months
have been an anchor for us, his children. We are forever grateful.
As we bid our Dad farewell, we carry forward the legacy of love, laughter, authenticity and
resilience that he embodied. Slán go fóill (Goodbye for now), our guiding star. Your spirit and
love continues to illuminate our paths.
